Animal rights activists have released undercover filming which appears to show sows and piglets being mistreated at a pig farm in Leicestershire. Sybil Ruscoe gets an update. 4x4s and motorbikes can continue to use the Lake District National Park, after campaigners lost their legal challenge against off-roading. More than 370,000 people signed a petition against it, but a judge dismissed their legal challenge. Continuing Farming Today's week-long look at the poultry sector, Anna Hill visits an outdoor chicken unit in Norfolk. And we find out how you harvest mulberries, with a trip to Hardwick Hall in Derbyshire. Presented by Sybil Ruscoe Produced by Emma Campbell for BBC Audio in Bristol.
